Reviews for Main Street Donair & Falafel in Yellowknife, NT
I've bought several chicken shawarma wraps and platters. This SHOULD be my go-to option when I don't pack a lunch but I had a... deal breaker experience. The good: Fast service, even when it's busy (which is almost always (between 12 and 12:30 onweekdays). I'm a big fan of shawarmas, even if their wrap technique isn't within the pita bread pocket (like they do everywhereelse). The meh: Inconsistent portions. Sometimes it's heavy on the protein, yay! Other times it's heavy on the very, very wetveggies. The wrap is a messy eat. The deal breaker: On June 10th, 2022, I watched the lady behind the counter microwave mychicken and potatoes because she served me food that was sitting in a bowl on the back counter and not the fresh chicken fromthe rotisserie. I asked why and she explained that she was very busy. I paid without a tip but couldn't bring myself to eat it. Read more
I got a large chicken shawarma and it was... fine. The wrap was definitely large, and there was no shortage of veggies, but... nothing really had any taste to it, including the hummus and tahina which were both very bland. Same with the chicken itself -tough and bland. All of that would be fine if it was the price that you'd get similar quality shawarma for in Toronto orMontreal, but at $20 after tax, I expect a lot more. Read more
The donair is disappointing, small, and costly. Also the building has a cockroach problem.
I have found quality very inconsistent and am Out-put by lack of hand washing from certain staff. I?ve watched people handle... money and not wash their hands before prepping food- just putting on one glove even though they handle food with bothhands. Also depends who makes your food. I?ve found the lady owner very kind and consistent in quality and quantity while othersare not. I?ve sometimes received a skimpy and sloppy mess instead of what is normally a nicely done shawarma. Value varies.Flavour is usually good though. Read more
Terrific service. Very nice ethnic feel and flair. I recommend this place. Makes a great donair pizza. ????????????????????
One of the worst donairs I've ever had, it was cold and had to be warmed up and i only ate half of it and threw the rest away... because the sweet sauce was weird tasting and the onions had some kind of salad dressing on them that made the donair taste offas well. Donair was over $17 with a can of pop. Service was good tho and clean inside. Other food might be good here but thedonair was not. Read more
I have always enjoyed my meal when ordering from here. I tend to get the chicken shawarma but also enjoy the samosas. Quick and... friendly service. Read more
